How to adjust your .rhosts files
for NQE job submissions

Typically the to machines are SGI (e.g. dataproc, tempest) and the from machines are your divisional/university machine or meeker.

Here's how to adjust your .rhosts files for the various submittal methods:

1. MIGS

   Your .rhosts file on this machine	Add these line(s)
   Desired SGI system	migs.ucar.edu
   Your divisional system	migs.ucar.edu   masgw

   For more info, see: http://www.scd.ucar.edu/docs/migs/xxjob.html#nqe

2. IRJE

   Your .rhosts file on this machine	Add these line(s)
   Desired SGI system	irje.ucar.edu
   Your divisional system	n/a

   For more info, see: http://www.scd.ucar.edu/docs/irje/new-irje.html

3. cqsub on meeker (to an SGI -- we'll use tempest in this example)

   Your .rhosts file on this machine	Add these line(s)
   tempest.ucar.edu	meeker.ucar.edu
   meeker.ucar.edu	tempest.ucar.edu

   For more info, see: www.scd.ucar.edu/docs/submittal/meeker-nqe.html

4. xxjob on meeker (as of 11/30/98). We'll use tejob (for tempest) in this example:

   Your .rhosts file on this machine	Add these line(s)
   tempest.ucar.edu	meeker.ucar.edu
   meeker.ucar.edu	tempest.ucar.edu

5. cqsub -- if the logins are different

   To submit from

   user_a@machine_a
   to
   user_b@machine_b

   Your .rhosts file on this machine	Add these line(s)
   machine_a	machine_b   user_b
   machine_b	machine_a   user_a

   • On machine_a,

        setenv NQS_SERVER machine_b
        cqsub -u user_b myjob
        

   • You will probably need to specify the project number for the job running on machine_b by, for example, putting
     #QSUB -A YourProjectNumber

     in the job script.

Notes

• Please note that all .rhosts files must have a permission of 600 (e.g. chmod 600 .rhosts) and there should be no trailing blanks on any line.

• To avoid possible confusion, we recommend you remove any .nqshosts files you may have on the target machine (i.e. the SGIs).

• For additional info about job submission, please see the last section of SCD Computers, Products, and Libraries.
